WATCH: Thousands Hear the Gospel in Vietnam

Thousands of Vietnamese heard about the during the Love Hanoi Festival Dec. 8-9. Franklin Graham told the crowd, “Remember this: God loves you.” This was the first large-scale evangelistic event in Northern Vietnam’s recent history.

As a visitor to Vietnam many times, beginning in 1968 and as recent as this past June, to know what I’ve seen personally and then to view Franklin’s speech in Hanoi, it greatly pleases me. Keep on Franklin, you have my prayers and maybe I’ll see you in Vietnam soon.

My draft number in 1971 was high, so my family was pleased I would not go to the war. A large amount of hate was expressed back then for the people we were fighting. It is wonderful to see the love of God proclaimed there and the spiritual victories. Both sides came to battle the real foe satan and to see all of us win through Jesus Christ
